Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Compiling Rust for .NET, using only tea and stubbornness
Tangentially related, I've written a barebones assembler for Android .apk files once (strictly speaking, the assembler is for .dex files, but it also comes with a set of tools to package and sign .apk files). It's written mainly in Nim and provides enough primitives to allow creating Java "stubs" for native .so libraries, so that .apk-s can be built in Nim WITHOUT JDK AT ALL. The Android NDK is still kinda needed/useful, though IIRC mainly for access to adb, and especially adb logcat (which you'll need A LOT for debugging if you try to use this contraption).
I'd love to One Day™ Rewrite It In Rust.
The .dex assembler itself is at: https://github.com/akavel/dali — you may like to check out the tests at: https://github.com/akavel/dali/tree/master/tests to see how using it looks like.
An example project with a simple .apk written purely in Nim (NO JDK) is at: https://github.com/akavel/hellomello/tree/flappy (unfortunately, given Nim's poor packaging story, it's most probably already bitrotten to the extent that it can't be quickly and easily built & used out of the box). I recorded a presentation about this for an online Nim conference — see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wr9X5NCwPlI&list=PLxLdEZg8DR...

What is your “I don't care if this succeeds” project?
https://github.com/akavel/dali was one (a fully hand-written assembler for Android .apk files); I managed to write a rudimentary flappy-bird-like prototype in it and did a presentation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wr9X5NCwPlI&list=PLxLdEZg8DR... but on shelf now, didn't get much attention, and I don't feel bad about it. Had some roadblocks, but managed to overcome them, and I'm honestly surprised how the core effort was basically easy to implement and how the formats were open and relatively simple. (The main real issues I had were that debugging via adb logs was tiresome when something was not working.) What was funny about this project was that I started it with basically a thought of: "there will be probably some annoying roadblock at some point that will make it unviable to continue; I accept that and will be ok with stopping once I stumble upon it; but I don't see one clearly from the start [I did some quick initial research how the formats & the bytecode look and they seemed rather simple], and I'm really curious how far I can get if I decide to not think about this possible roadblock". Turns out I was able to get all the way to the end :D

Ask HN: What are some unpopular technologies you wish people knew more about?
Vopono (https://github.com/jamesmcm/vopono):
"vopono is a tool to run applications through VPN tunnels via temporary network namespaces. This allows you to run only a handful of applications through different VPNs simultaneously, whilst keeping your main connection as normal.
vopono includes built-in killswitches for both Wireguard and OpenVPN."

Split-tunnelling on Linux for League of Legends
I think for now on Linux you (still!) have to use external application to do the splitting. Such is vopono
- Using linuxserver/wireguard container. How to set up Wireguard to connect to one of the servers at random?

The Mullvad Browser
you might want to check out vopono, i've gotten it working with firefox and its nice

Me after renewing Mullvad monthly just so I can keep my low powered computer seeding while I'm at work
I highly recommend using something like vopono with this on Linux that runs only the target application (e.g. Transmission) in a network namespace in the VPN and only forwards the specified ports and only allows traffic via the VPN.
-
More than a decade of doing this and I finally get a letter...
This is why I use vopono - you can run just the torrent client in the VPN on its own and the killswitch keeps it safe.

How to get around website blocks?
You can find the option in the settings of windows and android apps. Unfortunately, it's Still not available for Linux. As a workaround for Linux, you can use vopono, which has OpenVPN support for Proton. Or just manually add routing table entries :)

Your favourite Rust CLI utilities this year?
I wrote vopono, I use it all the time for quickly spinning up browsers through different VPNs for checking geographical restrictions, etc.
